I think we need proper broadband before we can compete competetively, how are our top players supposed to practice internationally?

DOA = Dead or Alive. Not sure what Freestyle means though...

@4cer: Very true. US, Japan, South Korea, probably have the highest broadband penetration in the world and look how many gold medals they got.

Germany and China are probably "tier 2" with regards to broadband penetration although it's interesting to note that Brazil won a game...

SA had a CS and WC team sent up. The CS team did alright and beat Greece but unfortunatly lost to Canada 17-11 to get knocked out
